Washtenaw Heavy Skirmisher -Public Release- Current Version 1/19/2016

Please, test the combat worthiness of my craft! Pit it against your friends, your enemies, those dumb ai's. Be careful, the shields are an afterthought, you WILL need to repair it! Test this ship against those so called corvettes and frigates. If it can cause significant damage to them, then they have made some poor design choices. :p


It uses orange under-armor and tries to mitigate system damage that way.
You should never lose computers in this ship, unless a titan sneezes on you. (last version a titan did, and the only thing left was the orange box (nickname for the computer space), so I removed some armor and put in more systems because that is overkill.

Don't forget to make sure the AA turrets are active and the effects are on please. But yes, shoot it to hell. It is a lot of fun.

More lore friendly description coming soon, I promise. Apparently I am a lazy mofo, sorry about that.

This is a big, fat gunship, an up-scaled heavy fighter. It is built around a massive 2400 block cannon: cannon: punch system, with 4 outputs. Snaking powerlines and cannon blocks and armor plating in the front prevented me from making a hallway from the core room to the cockpits, and had to make use of the new teleporter system. Sorry, but it is built for combat first!

Secondary equipments include a Dual Setup Ventral Launched missiles (1 per time, 2 tubes, click twice), decoy missiles to assist the missiles in hitting target, shield drain beams, primitive second generation logic warp drive, and a simple chaff system. Also comes with the vital pierce and puncture defensive effects, and 3 Point Defense Turrets.

Project goal: Make a RP dropship that can carry my warhog, marines, and provide fire support to troops on the ground.
What I got: A frickin fighter with a potbelly.

Plenty of display screens on the inside telling you more about the ship itself, if you want you can remove them and replace them with orange advanced armor or shield caps.
